« on: September 09, 2010, 21:03:41 PM »
I got into the Luton gig - Ger could not cos it said another player from your network has already registered - what is the alternative ?

hmm, slight problem with registering here.  I won a ticket via a satellite.  someone else used my computer (their account) to buy into the tournament tonight.  I then logged on to my account to register, but the software apparently won"t let two people register from the same IP  ???

Can you find someone to buy-in for him...I"m sure we can sort out an exchange after the fact.

or....wireless dongle instead of using home network?

Any ticket problems, or dual player household problems, please post here, and I"ll work through them.

Thanks,

I"ve just rang Betfair and it is the software but they will get back to me within 24 hours as in their words the game will not sell out!!!!!!!

I"ve managed to register but Caroline hasn"t, so as things stand, I"ll just unregister and won"t go and wait until we swop the Betfair sponsor for one that knows what they are doing!!!!!!!!

Not impressed, as this is not the first time that this issue has been flagged up.

Not a problem (Well, okay, it is a problem), but I"ll make sure you both get in.

Over-react much?

Not to make light of your problem but the positives that Betfair have brought to APAT this year far outweigh the minor difficulties affecting a very small number of players.

Sorry Paulie but to those of us who have been longstanding supporters of APAT these issues are a right pain in the rear. I think it"s wrong to imply that if it only affects a few then that"s OK given that these issues didn"t exist with previous sponsors. Baldus has every right to be a bit miffed - lets face it he doesn"t get any added value if he can"t play the event!

I"m hopeful that Betfair can sort it out for the future because this issue doesn"t exist for the league games - each time we have a click fest they just need to be reminded to set up the game the same as they do the league game and allow anyone regardless of IP.
